COLLEGE DANGERS
Dr. Van Dusen Stresses Stand-
ardization�-Loas of Head
and Conscience. �
BRYN MAWR (AND WAYNE). PA.. WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 6,
1526
PRICE, 10 CENTS
HOPE IS IN HUMILITY
"A college education does strange
things," said Dr. Henry P. Van Dusen,
speaking at the first Sunday evening serv-
ice of the Christian Association, in Tay-*
lor on October 3. .
To one with gifts pf observation and
reflection it would be interesting to draw
apart from college life and observe that
mechanical organism which draws into
its mouth a freshman and after four
years turns out a different person. We
think we are "masters of our fate," but
we are merely masters of our choices.
The first of these is college. A watcher,
� observing the process, can see the young
life kneaded and moulded, and can fol-
low its sequence in the maze of life com-
ing after.
Molding of the Freshman.
One sees a freshman "naive, nervous,
perplexed, unconsciously alert," moulded
in the direction of the "right thing." The
hair, the clothes, the accent, even the
hand clasp assume the proper mould, de-
pending on the college chosen, be it Yale
or Princeton, or Bryn Mawr.
After a year, smoking has become a
habit, or the brand of cigarettes changed
to the "apppropriate" one, but that is not
all, the process has pierced below into
the spirit. There is a constant altert-
ness; a reaching out; an expertness at
criticism of anything, dress, book, play,
idea or character, with no realization
that criticism is only justified in so far
as we are willing to sacrifice our life's
blood to remedy the condition. There is
"an aptitude of repartee covering an
abyss of ignorance;" an eagerness for
controversy in search of that truth which
can only be found by being humble.
Many Change* Wrought
Four years later the emerging student
may be merely a more mature edition of
this Freshman, with an added touch pf
cynicism. Or she may be a bundle of
uncertainties, doubtful of everything, and
without a plan for the future. But there
is a chance that it may be different. The
characteristic personality may be laid off,
and the real one, cruder, but tempered
by experience, allowed to come out. She
realizes-that ideals are never easy, but
they are true, and to give one's life for
them is the only thing worth doing. She
knows where 'the true values of life lie,
that humanity is to be served. She is
simple, realistic and humble.
In spite of the glory, the intellectual
stimulus, the chance to know the mean-
ing of friendship, and all the other things
we have always known that college would
bring us, it turns out many who are dis-
satisfied and unprepared to serve a needy
world. It too often turns us out "super-
ficial sophisticates."
There are three requirements for an
educated person. First, a "vision of the

SPEAKERS' BUREAU
Undergraduate to Take Over Func-
tion of Liberal Club.
A meeting of the Undergraduate
Association was held on Tuesday, Oc-
tober 5, to determine whether the as-
sociation should take over the function
of the Liberal Club in providing speak-
ers. C. Chambers, president, told the
meeting that the present dues would
not be sufficient to cover the cost of
providing speakers. A motion was
put and carried to increase the dues
to $1.50 a semester and to have a
speakers' bureau, the chairman of
which is to be appointed by the presi-
dent of the Undergraduate Associa-
tion. The remainder of the committee
is to be composed of one member of
each class.
The,chair announced that the Var-
sity Dramatics Committee now con-
sists of E. Norton, '27, chairman; F.
Waite, '27; M. Villard. '27; A. Learned,
'2fl. and M. Brown, '39.
It was also announced that Dr. Fen-
wick will again give his current events
lectures on Tuesday nights this year.
Leaaie Hendrick, �27, Spends July
at "Junior Month."
9 For several years Bryn Mawr has had
the privilege of sending a junior class
'representative to New York for the
month sf July as the guest of the Chari-
ty Organization Society. This last year,
Jessie Hendrick, 1927, was selected for
"Junior Month" and with Manhattan Is-
land for a campus and the tenements
for a laboratory, she learned, along with
juniors from 11 other colleges, how so-
cial theories jibe with facts.
Miss Clare Tousley, who has charge
of "Junior Month," announces that m
addition to this opportunity offered to
undergraduates each July, a course in
"Principles of Social Work" is to be
offered this fall by the CrTarity Organi-
zation Society to alumnae who live in or
near New York, and who catf volunteer
21 hours a week to social work.
"Xow is the time." writes Miss Ton-
sely, "for young alumnae who have the
leisure, to roll up the sleeves of their
college education and put it to work for
humanity. To those �who haw convic-
tions about fair play, who have a zest for
adventure, an urge to put a shoulder to
the wheel of progress, the C. O. S. of-
fers not only an opportunity for service
but for training in social work."
Details may be secured by writing
Miss Tousley at 105 East Twenty-second
street, New York City.
Miss Tousley adds that similar op-
portunies are to be offered in other cities,
concerning which she will be glad to
inform any alumnae.

SOPHOMORES FAIL.
True to form and tradition last
Wednesday night, by the light of 1928's
torches the Freshman class marched full
force to the Sophomore bonfires. Despite
the almost annual parade night drizzle
the band struck up with great en-
thgsiasm the Freshman tune of "Tramp,
tramp, tramp the boys are marching" to
which the Freshmen responded with:
"Tramp, tramp, tramp the blue is march-
ing
Onward with heroic tread
Sophomores you must hustle soon
If you want to get our tune
For the class of 30's always there ahead."
T�je climax of the evening came at
Pembroke arch when it was discovered
that 1930 had been successful in main-
taining the secrecy of their song. 1929's
only available answer was a cheer. This
is the first time in several years that the
Freshmen have walked away with the
honors.
Many alumnae were back for the
cheering and singing at Pembroke arch
which followed the bonfire dance.
TO CONDUCT CONFERENCES
Varsity Defeats Buccaneers.
Starting sut the season with a decided
victory Varsity defeated the Buccaneers
last Saturday morning with a score of
5-0. Despite the damp condition of the
field both teams played fairly fast hockey.
Considering the lack of preliminary prac-
tice, Bryn Mawr showed good co-opera-
tion and team work.
On Varsity's forward line B. Loincs.
'28, and E. Winchester, '27, showed the
best speed and accuracy. The back field
muddled a bit and were awkward at
changing over. The forwards on the
Buccaneer line were very slow at shooting
and inclined to hesitate instead of rushing
the goaip*
If it may be judged from this first
match Varsity's prospects are very prom-
ising. The line-ups were as follows:

Norman Angell to Lead at Women's

Norman Angell, whose previous lec-
ture tours throughout America have made
him a familiar and welcome guest, is to
conduct the series of conferences on
worjri affairs arranged by the Women's
International League for Peace and Free-
dom, for five Monday afternoons begin-
ning October 18, in the Friends' Meet-
ing House at 20 South Twelfth street.

A Prolific Author.
His cosmopolitan education and experi-
ence makes Mr. Angcll's opinions on.such
topics as "The Rising Tide of Dictator-
ship: Where Democracy Fails in Ameri-
ca" one of the subjects for discussion,
particularly valuable. Bq�n in England,
he received jiart of his education in
France, part in the United States, where
he later became a journalist. He left to
go abroad as foreign correspondent for
American newspapers, and became gen-
eral manager for the Paris Daily Mail.
-Meanwhile he had been writing exten-
sively on international problems, turn-
ing much attention to America and her
part in the world war. His most success-
ful book was The Great Illusion which
underwent translation into 25 foreign
tongues and has sold well over half a
million copies.
The titles of his books are provacative,
the titles of his coming series of dis-
cussions even more so. Each conference
will open with 15 minutes of free dis-
Not only for alumnae and undergrad-
uates of Bryn Mawr. but also for all
who are interested in the progress of
education, the Bryn Mawr exhibit at the
Scsquicentennial Exposition in Philadel-
phia is worthy of inspection, study, and
admiration.
The exhibit is in trfe Educational
liuilding, among the .exhibits of many
other educational institutions. On the
wall in the center is a poster calling at-
tention to the pioneer work of the
college in many educational fields: for
Bryn Mawr, as too few remember, >�as
the first woman's college to introduce
self-government, to establish resident fel-
lowships for foreign students and foreign
fellowships for its own students, to create
a graduate department of social economy
and social research, and to hold on its
campus a summer school for adult work-
ers in industry.

Miss Dillingham will have the* re-
sponsibly of arranging the work on the
Extra-Curriculum German and French
and in Articulation and Hygiene in the
office of the Dean this year. Students
should therefore consult her on all ques-
tions connected with these classes. They
can also consult her on points connected
with their courses, although Dean Man-
ning would like to see all students at
least once during the year with regard
to 'the general arrangement of their
course and the choice of their major
subject.
Questions of the schedule or the divi-
sions of the first year courses should be
taken up with the Secretary to the Dean.
Dr. Cadbury will offer this year a
course in Elementary Hebrew. The hour
can be arranged to suit any students who
may register for it, and it is suggested
that any students who wish to take this
course report to the Dean's SfficO afftnee.

MISS PARK LAUDS C. A.
, "In its best clothes," the college as-
sembled for the Christian Association
reception to the incoming freshmen and
graduates promptly at 8 o'clock Satur-
day evening. October 2, in the gymna-
sium. Each conple upon arriving made
its way down the receiving line. Then
they danced until everyone had had a
chance to meet the speakers and other
celebrities of the evening.
� B. Pitney, '27. made the first speech.
She said that it was the custom for the
president of the Christian Association to
welcome the freshmen and incoming
graduates, but this year, since the fresh-
men had been here four days longer than
anyone else, it seemed rather impossible
to welcome them at this point. "They
must feel that they know their way
arqiind after ten days. But there is a
great deal more to knowing one's way
around Bryn Mawr than merely knowing
the way from Taylor to Dalton. It is
to the chance of getting to know Bryn
Mawr in a way that takes longer than
ten days or ten weeks, or even four
years, that I welcome you." ^. *
Miss Park Speaks. ~'�U
Introducing Miss Park, Miss Pitney
quoted an old Spanish proverb, "He who
seeks the wealth of the Indies must
have the wealth of the Indies within him."
Miss Park spoke about C. A., pointing
out its importance to the college through
its many activities, such as conducting
Sunday evening services, providing teach-
ing for the maids, and the work of the
Welcoming Committee. But C. A. has
another, more intangible service. "Dur-
ing the year each Bryn Mawr student
must find a new way of living. C. A.
helps in this. Christianity has two mean-
ings, it is concerned with the spiritual life
of the individual, and also with the in-
terrelation of lives, or 'the spirit of work-
ing together.' It is for the help in this
respect that the college is perhaps more .
grateful to the Christian Association than
for any of its outside activities."
Miss Pitney announced that the next
speaker was absent. Miss Applebee,
whose speech at C. A. reception has al-
most become tradition, has been called
to Washington. However, a substitute
was sought, and found, difficult though it
might be to substitute for Miss Applebee,
in the person of one "who has hardly
ever been a substitute for anything in
her life," J. Seeley, "27.

Miss Seeley began her remarks about
the Athletic Association by saying: ''In
